1 Power Window problem of the 2002 Dodge Ram 1500

Failure Date: 02/12/2012

2002 Dodge Ram 1500 slt 2wd 5. 9 v8 (gas) with 86,000 miles. Turn signals have suddenly become dangerously intermittent. Also, occasionally when signaling 'left' the right dash indicator for the turn signals will flash instead. It happened twice today, we turned the signal off then back 'on' and it worked properly. Because this is intermittent we cannot duplicate the problem to determine if the outside bulbs are flashing left or right, therefore we worry they might be incorrectly signaling our intentions to other drivers. While searching on-line for a solution before we determine a repair course of action, we discovered this is common to the Dodge ram trucks from 2002 through at least 2008 model year trucks, but the dealer did not mention or address it in advance of failure. We paid in advance for a seven year 100% warranty with no deductible, which has not expired. We believe Dodge had prior knowledge of the weakness and could have repaired it during the no-deductible warranty period. The passenger door window switch continues to fail. Its a simple plug-in module and I have replaced it twice with the factory part, and now its intermittent again after less than one year. From the mileage its clear we are not wearing out switches.

5 Power Window problem of the 1998 Dodge Ram 1500

Placement of mirror, width of door post make it impossible to see all traffic comming from right. Mirror could be lowered at least 3 inches. This also caused an exact accident with a '95 ram. Visibilty is very limited by the post coupled with poor mirror placement.
